I was just wondering if anyone knew of good places for Canadians to buy yarn that's relatively cheap, and that shipping doesn't cost a ton.. It seems like most places I've looked either don't ship to Canada, or it just seems so expensive to ship here... So, where do fellow Canadians buy their yarn online? Or do most just not?

KnitPicks does ship to Canada, but it's over $8 for shipping, plus they charge 10% extra to your amount for "duty". It can add up. I ordered from them before, but I got well over $100 in yarn, so paying the shipping wasn't too bad. I've ordered from them two other times, but had the yarn sent to friends in the States before going to visit them.

Webs ships to Canada, but I'm not sure how they charge the duty. Googling for Canadian yarn shops is the best bet, or just sucking up the difference in cost, if you want really nice, fancy stuff.

Beehive Woolshop in Victoria will ship to you, and they have an excellent selection. I'm not sure about their shipping costs though.

hi there fellow canuck!!!
here is the lis where I buy my yarn they are Candianhttp://www.chantalscraftycorner.comwww.elann.com (click on page at bottom to go to Cnadian site)
and 2 reallygod places on ebay one is Canadian the other American and they both are reasonable for shipping.....

I couldn't agree more with babydill. If you want to order from the US, take out your calculator! Shipping is generally higher, duties will be added, not to mention the exchange rate. It can be worth it if you are buying things really not available elsewhere or if you are buying a lot. Otherwise, it's not.
